EV adoption will support the company’s goal in achieving carbon neutral operations by 2040

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, May 17, 2023 – FedEx Express (FedEx), a subsidiary of FedEx Corp. (NYSE: FDX) and one of the world’s largest express transportation companies, announced the addition of electric vehicles (EVs) to its fleet in Malaysia, as part of continuing efforts to reduce environmental impact and promote sustainable logistics.

The first two EVs were successfully incorporated for parcel pick-up and delivery operations within the Klang Valley. The zero-tailpipe emissions vehicles contribute to reduced carbon footprint and improved air quality in urban areas. FedEx will continue to expand its EV fleet to help advance emissions reduction goals in Malaysia.

“FedEx has been actively promoting the use of EVs as part of its sustainability goal, including the electrification of its fleet. We recognize the benefits of EVs in reducing CO2 emissions and are taking concrete steps to integrate them into our operations.” said Tien-Long Woon, managing director, FedEx Express Malaysia and Thailand. “Our actions support the Malaysian government’s strong commitment to promote EVs to mitigate the effects of climate change and achieve net zero nationally by 2050. With our 30 years of operations in Malaysia, this is an opportunity for us to demonstrate our leadership in the business community and that it is possible and imminent for companies to operate sustainably while delivering high-quality products and services to customers.”

Throughout the Asia Pacific, Middle East and Africa region, FedEx has deployed electric vehicles in a number of countries, with the region’s largest EV fleet in China. FedEx has also tested EVs in India, Thailand, South Africa, and the United Arab Emirates to help advance emissions reduction goals.

FedEx is committed to reducing its environmental impact and working towards a goal of carbon neutral operations through various initiatives. The company recognizes vehicle electrification as a key area in this effort and has set the goal of operating an all-electric global pickup and delivery (PUD) fleet by 2040. To achieve this, FedEx Express intends to purchase 50% of all new PUD vehicles as electric by 2025 and 100% by 2030.

In addition to vehicle electrification, FedEx has a tailored approach to efficient and responsible resource management that focuses on reducing, replacing, and revolutionizing both in its air and ground operations. Specific initiatives include the fuel savings initiatives, investment in renewable energy, and implementation of sustainable packaging solutions.

 

As FedEx celebrates its 50th birthday this year, this initiative is part of how we are creating a better world with our team members united behind our desire to deliver the best results for our customers, our communities, and our planet for a sustainable world.

Kaspersky thwarts almost 50M local incidents against SEA businesses last year

By
Tan Heng Hong

17 May 2023 – Fresh data from global cybersecurity company Kaspersky shows a total of 49,042,966 local threats were blocked by Kaspersky business solutions from infecting companies here last year.

These types of attacks were more prevalent in businesses in Indonesia (19,614,418 incidents), Vietnam (17,834,312), and Thailand (5,838,460).

A total of 3,841,548 local threats eyeing business in Malaysia were prevented by Kaspersky, 1,585,384 in the Philippines, and 328,844 in Singapore.

These statistics represent the malicious programs found directly on users’ computers or removable media connected to them (flash drives, camera memory cards, phones, external hard drives), or which initially made their way onto the computer in non-open form (for example, programs in complex installers, encrypted files, etc.).

While local threats against SEA businesses are higher compared with the number of online attacks monitored and blocked by Kaspersky last year, a steady dip is also observed on a year-on-year basis.

Yeo Siang Tiong, General Manager for Southeast Asia at Kaspersky

“The peak of the pandemic in 2020 saw 92M local infections prevented by Kaspersky. It dipped in 2021 with 69M incidents and further down last year with 49M, almost just half of 2020’s total number. Despite the downward trend, businesses should still be on guard because weaponized USBs and removable drives can still be an effective source of malware that can compromise your networks, servers, and even hardware,” warns Yeo Siang Tiong, General Manager for Southeast Asia at Kaspersky.

Protection against offline attacks not only requires an antivirus solution capable of treating infected objects but also a firewall, anti-rootkit functionality and control over removable devices.

In case a rogue USB or removable drive infects your systems, Kaspersky experts suggest businesses to have a comprehensive defensive concept that equips, informs and guides your team in their fight against the most sophisticated and targeted cyberattacks like Kaspersky Extended Detection and Response (XDR) platform.

More information about this new platform at go.kaspersky.com/expert. Kaspersky in Southeast Asia also has launched a Buy 1 Free 1 promo. Businesses can now enjoy two years of enterprise-grade endpoint protection for the price of 1 with Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business or Cloud or Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Optimum, with 24×7 phone support. Interested customers can reach out to sea.sales@kaspersky.com.
